- Aptos was integrated into Tria’s global commerce engine, a neobank with 500,000 users in more than 150 countries with its own custody system.
- The Aptos Network recorded a record TVL of $1 billion, 10 million monthly active users and 326 million transactions in a single day.
- BlackRock, Franklin Templeton and Microsoft operate live products on the network. $APT was classified as a digital commodity under the SEC/CFTC framework in March 2026.
Tria announced the integration of Aptos into its global commerce enginea platform that brings more than just together 500,000 users in more than 150 countries. From now on, those users can do that too deposit, trade and withdraw native assets from the $APT network directly from the same personal account they already use to manage their portfolio, earn revenue and pay with a Visa card at more than 150 million merchants.
According to Tria, what move $APT distinguishing itself from other networks is not his technical proposal but its institutional proposal: BlackRock chose Aptos as the only non-EVM chain for its BUIDL fundFranklin Templeton manages its on-chain money market fund on the network and Microsoft built its institutional blockchain infrastructure on Azure with Aptos at its core. None of these projects are in a pilot phase; they all operate with real capital.
The Aptos infrastructure
The network’s figures are of fundamental importance. Aptus reached a peak TVL of $1 billion in 2024, representing a growth of 700% over the year. The market capitalization of stablecoins on the network surpassed $1.9 billion and the value of tokenized real-world assets reached an all-time high of $1.2 billionwith active implementations of BlackRockFranklin Templeton, Ondo and Apollo.
On a technical level, the network works with block times under 50 milliseconds, finality in less than one second, costs under $0.001 and 99.99% uptime. In March 2026, $APT was formally classified as one digital goods within the joint regulatory framework of the SEC and the CFTC, paving the way for large institutional capital flows that were previously legally unviable.
One account for all chains
In terms of benefits for Tria, the integration allows its users to do just that trade over 100 chains using Aptos as a fast execution layerPerform cross-chain swaps with instant settlement and without third-party bridges, and get access to a DeFi ecosystem that includes on-chain derivatives and tokenized real-world assets.
The goal of both companies is to build the financial operating system for the global user: a single, self-managed account, functional in any chain, in any country and at any time.
